    Even though I thought I made up the word "califat", it appears to be some sort of French... thing. Take a look for yourself. Here's a translation from super-awesome Babelfish:

    Quote:The prophet had not indicated of successor. They are his/her closer companions who élirent the first caliph. This election was disputed from the very start by a certain current which, later, took the name of Shiism. All was confusion with Médine after the death of the prophet. The bond which linked the Companions were broken, the rival parties sought to seize the capacity. They were three. 1) ' Alî (Ali) and his counted them on their close relationship with Mohammed. 2) Médinois wished to finish some with the domination from abroad, but it were divided. 3) the close friends of the Prophet, the triumvirate of Abû Bakr, ' Omar and Abû ' Ubayda, which had already taken share with the government did not intend to give up it. Benefitting from confusion and general indecision, energetic Abû Bakr, vigorously assisted by ' Omar, penetrated resolutely in the saqîfa or gantry of Banû Sa' îda and obtained the bay' has or the allegiance of those which were joined together there to deliberate. Abû Bakr became thus the first caliph of Islam. Ali refused to lend allegiance to Abû Bakr. Abû Bakr took the modest title of khalîfat rasûl Allâh, literally lieutenant (with the direction first of this word "that which holds place of") of the Envoy of God. Abû Bakr, Omar, Othman and Ali his called "orthodoxe caliphs" (râchidûn).

    Huh.


    ,,,,

    "Califat" translated from French to Enlish is "Caliphate", according to babelfish. And according to dictionary.com, the definition of caliphate is:

    Quote:The office or jurisdiction of a caliph. The last caliphate was held by Ottoman Turkish sultans until it was abolished by Kemal Atatürk in 1924.

    And the definition of caliph is:

    Quote:A leader of an Islamic polity, regarded as a successor of Muhammad and by tradition always male.



    Interesting. I wonder if "Semnat" means anything...
